  • In this video, I teach you guys how I mix my rap vocals. Alot of of these mixing concepts are very basic but they are essential if you want a clean vocal mix. I am using Fl Studio Stock plugins but you can use to plugins within your respective DAWS (Ableton, logic, Pro tools) We talk about EQ, Compression, De-essing, Saturation, Reverb, and much more!

      Tbh, it's not correct. At least in the industry it's not necessarily correct. Sounds fine for an untreated room and if it sounds good to you then that's fine. There are a lot more professional videos out there for mixing vocals though.

      @@tobehonest116 in an untreated room without any sound panels you're going to capture all of the frequencies bouncing off the walls all around the place. This makes the vocal take less clear and harder to work with especially when it comes to time based effects like reverb and delay. It's kinda like adding reverb onto another reverb.
      Try to capture the cleanest dry signal you can.
      Look up the basics of eq and compression and it will give you a better idea on how to use those tools. Every voice is different and there are many different ways to capture a vocal. Because of this, theres no one correct way to mix it. By knowing these tools, you will be able to work with the recording as best you can and know what you are hearing. Like the room could have some awful reflections in the upper mid frequencies so you can do an eq sweep to find that frequency that is sounding harsh. Learn to hear what "muddy" sounds like too. By pulling out some of the lows you can bring a lot of clarity to the vocal.
      Think of EQ as kind of a knife that carves the sound to fit with everything else.
      Compression is exactly what the same says. It squashes the vocal making the louder parts more even with the quiet parts of the vocal.
      This can be used to keep the vocal from being too loud at certain parts of the song as well as change the sound completely in some cases. Knowing how youd like things to sound and then knowing what tools do to achieve that sound is going to improve your mixing a ton.
      Theres nothing wrong with a video like this, obviously I'm here as well. I like to see what other people are doing because it gives me ideas and inspires me to try out new things. Just dont takke any 1 video as the be all end all.
      Keep up the hard work on your music production journey! Being eager to learn is vital.

    Damn, this is super useful. I'd never considered using multiband compression for de-essing. And it's super smart to crank up the low cut on the 'verb, helps give your vocals that subtle "natural" sound without muddying up the mix. I have a tendency not to use the boost & slide EQ technique enough, def gotta apply it more. Thanks for the tutorial, I'm definitely gonna be coming back to this.

    • @kalandemumba4970
      @kalandemumba4970 5 лет назад +10

      A de-esser is essentially just a multiband compressor. You could use fruity multiband compressor to do this too or any other multiband compressor to target the frequencies where you've got sibilance (S's, T's and P's) and that's often between 3K and 5K Hz. You don't really have to know that number. De-essers are just specially designed to tackle those sorts of problems and those frequency ranges but they work on the same principle of any other multiband compressor. Hope this helped

      @@HapsMbambs I know what I'm talking about....I'm not saying adjusting by the visual alone, I mean I like to see what's being de-essed as well as hear it.

    I always thought you’d want the meter by the cpu to not be red or showing too much hot levels. Is it because it not analog that makes it okay or is this just an example of a mix before mastering?
